So I don't know if anyone has had the chance to see the new 100$ bill in person that we're just released. I saw them for the first time this morning (work at a bank) and I don't know how I feel about them. They sure look great, and it's nice that they are rip and water proof but they just lack the feel of the paper based money.... What's everyone elses' thoughts?

Yet to see them.

Playing blackjack in the casino last night and they were going around changing all the slot machines to accept the new ones. Cashed out at the end of the night but they didn't have any yet.

I haven't come across any new ones yet, but I did put two pristine $100 bills in my safety deposit box to keep the $1000 bill company

Thought you were going to say ask the girl friend for a hundred

I was then going to say you need to introduce me to the girls you hang out with. LOL

I saw one today, I think they're really cool, I like the feel of them; some might say it feels fake.

Remember these new bills are made of polymer, and not the old cotton blend paper. They resist spills and stains, and have a smooth plastic feel to them on the back.

Here's an article with a picture.

If you really want one 1000, I have a couple and a very rare 1954.
But they are worth a bit more than face value.
Have you checked online the values.
Let me know.
